[QUOTE=Daryles;1232466]My High Pointe Microwave quit. Suspected fuse. Found a couple of YouTube videos showing how to remove the top front cover and replace the fuse. Take a butter knife and run it under the top edge. Apparently where the 2 screws go down from the top, there is some metal burrs that protrude through the screw holes into the plastic tab that cause it to hang on. Run the butter knife under the screw holes releases the top front cover. PULL HARD straight towards you.

Microwave door switches

Amazon: KW3A need 1 (comes with 2 switches in the kit), KW3AT-16 need 1
Black upper switch P/N KW3AT-16 normally open.
Grey upper switch P/N KW3A normally closed
Grey lower switch P/N KW3A normally open
Pay attention to which one goes where.
Eventually I replaced the HighPointe with a Whirlpool WMH31017HZ04
Microwave only. We never used the convection oven.[/QUOTE. I see you replaced your microwave with a new one a while ago. My door switches on my High Pointe Micro shuts off the power and then shortly after it comes back on. Not looking to replacing the door switches especially if that’s not the problem. Unit is 4 years old. You replaced yours with a Whirlpool, I think. I am thinking the same but want to know if you had a vent issue with the new unit. I may have some wiggle room with the vent but not much
